Yeah, because you want to look cool and act like money isn't a problem to your hipster friends. Sure, put some cold drinks on that fake iPad and walk around like you don't care. Oh the shock of the MacHeads as they cringe in horror!
Really, I don't know why you would want one. Even the makers don't know why you would want one either. But, like anything popular, someone out there wants a fake one just to have.
Here's a perfect scenario to frame someone into buying you a new one. Walk around with it, and then let someone you know try to play with it. As they grab it, make them drop it and then blame them for breaking it. In their guilt, they'll buy you a new one. Just don't let them touch it afterwards. If you stoop that low, then yes, you deserve a dummy iPad. It's just $49 and includes shipping.
Here's a little info from their FAQ:
Do you sell working iPads?
For people browsing around this site with the idea they can get an iPad for $49, here the definition of ‘dummy’: ‘a model or replica of a human being’. And that’s exactly what we sell. We sell non-working – without electronica – ‘iPad-looking’ replica’s of iPads, not real iPads. The dummies, however, have real weight, and look really close to a real iPad, but the parts of the dummy model cannot be used to replace original iPad parts. We don’t sell any working and/or original Apple stuff, please remember this. We sell not-working, non-original dummies aka display models.
Can the screen be used to replace a real iPad screen?
No, the screen of the dummy is made of plastic. It is not not realistic to use it as a replacement for your real iPad.
Do the buttons respond like normal buttons?
No! They won’t respond when you press them.
Is the back made of aluminum?
No! It’s all plastic.
